Obituary
Anchorage resident Austin John "A.J." Joy, 89, died of natural causes Oct. 25, 2008, at Elmendorf hospital.
At his request, no services will be held. His last wishes were to take a final flight with his son in Jay's 185 over the beautiful mountains that he so loved, to be his final resting place.
A.J. was born April 23, 1919, in New Jersey to Austin and Lillian (Strang) Joy.
He came to Alaska with his brother, Vince Joy, during the summer of 1936 to establish the beginnings of Central Alaska Missions in Copper Center and later in Glennallen.
A.J.'s love for Alaska included flying with his brother, Vince, in the late 1930s. He later joined the Army Air Corps and became a fighter pilot instructor during World War II. A.J. met Betty White in 1946 while in the Army Air Corps. They were married and had three children.
Through the 1950s, A.J. flew commercially and for his beloved Air Guard. In 1962, he started working for Anchorage Natural Gas. He retired from there in 1984.
A.J. spent his retired years with good friends at Jackie's restaurant and at the bowling alley, bowling on many leagues.
He spent his last seven years living with his son and daughter-in-law, Jay and Reggie Joy, at their home on Flat Top, where they could take care of him.
"We are sorry to see him go, and he will be missed, but never forgotten," his family said.
He is survived by his sister, Violet Woodside of Florida; brother, Sherwood "Woody" Joy; daughters and son-in-law, Beth and Jack White of Fort Collins, Colo., and Lynn Cannon of Colorado; son and daughter-in-law, Jay and Reggie Joy of Anchorage; and many grandchildren and great-grandchildren who will miss him greatly.
A.J. was preceded in death by his brother, Vince Joy, and wife, Betty.

Obituary
Frederick H. Booth was born on Oct. 5, 1921, in Southold, Long Island, N.Y. He was a 13-pound baby, and he remained larger than life until his death in Charlotte, N.C., on Feb. 13, 2012. A memorial service will be held in Kitty Hawk, N.C., at the Methodist Church on March 30 at 2 p.m. An event in Fred's honor will take place in Maplewood, N..J. in May. After high school in Southold, N.Y., Fred attended Middlebury College in Vermont, where he met his first wife, Marion Thompson. His education was interrupted by World War II, during which he served in the Army Air Corps as a staff sergeant, leading recruits in physical training. He was studying to be a radioman when the war ended. After the war, he returned to school to Springfield College in Massachusetts, from which he graduated and attained his master's degree in physical education. He taught physical education at Trinity College in Connecticut for six years, coaching football, basketball and baseball. The family then moved to Maplewood, N.J., in 1954. Fred taught physical education at Columbia High School for 34 years, coached basketball and football and umpired high school and college baseball games. He demonstrated and taught platform diving at the Maplewood Community Pool, fearlessly performing his signature hand-stand dive for the final time at the age of 65. Fred married his second wife, Faith Crowley, in 1982. Upon retiring in 1988, they moved to Kitty Hawk, N.C., where Fred could live near and swim in his beloved ocean. He was known and admired by many people, and he was good at every sport he ever tried. He was a happy man, full of fun, daring to attempt anything he set his mind to. Fred was a very loving father, grandfather, and husband and was deeply loved by all his family. He is survived by his wife, Faith, of Kitty Hawk, N.C.; his children, Barbara; Doug and his wife, Victoria, and Jim of Washington State, and his precious and beloved grandchildren, Lily, Magnolia, and Keely of Washington State. He is also survived by his stepchildren, Grace of Seattle, Andrea of Connecticut, Patti of Colorado and Mike of Charlotte, N.C.and step-grandchildren, Jack, Clare, and Finn of Connecticut, and Chloe and Sophie of Colorado. Fred is to be inducted into the Columbia High School Hall of Fame in May 2012. Memorials in Fred's honor may be sent to the Fred Booth Athletic Scholarship Fund, Columbia High School, 17 Parker Ave., Maplewood, N.J. 07040.Frederick — Marion Thompson. [Group Sheet]
